Flucloxacillin 500mg four times a day

[Kazzacollie]

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick question typically I have got a skin infection that I have been told will be sorted with Flucloxacillin, they said they have not been known to cause problems in pregnant women, but me being me im still worried. Has anyone on here used them during pregnancy and had no problems?? Just the priority to me is to do the best I can with my babies.

Thanks for your help xxx

Think they are from the group of amoxocillin I can't take them as allergic have used ethromyacin (wrong spelling) and have been Ok with them, I always double check with the pharmacist x

Thanks Babymother I have taken Amoxocillin for a water infection at the beginning of pregnancy so knew those were ok. My doctors good, but just wanted other peoples thoughts as im a massive worrier! Hope you and baby are ok! xx

Fluclox is a penicillin. Safe in pregnancy.
